Here is our assignment for the week:
I've created threads for each of the 5 points in the wiki. We all need to respond to the 5 points below (A) before we can create the table(Aa).

I've broken the task up into A + Aa, B, C, D below. We can all add individual information to the wiki regarding B & C. I'm not sure about creating the table (Aa)- Do you think she wants some sort of Excel document or just a list? Any ideas for how to do that?

A Discuss the following using your experience as a student or teacher:
1 The major aspects of written, oral, and visual literacy
2 How to use reading circles and other student-centered approaches to studying literature
3 Different strategies to help students become reflective readers

4 Strategies for building comprehension and vocabulary skills in reading


5 Appropriate meaning-making strategies and forms of critical analysis for understanding text and novels



  1. Create a table that identifies the main points from the discussion.

  2. Develop a checklist you can use to evaluate English texts.

  3. Evaluate three to five English texts using your checklist.

D. Create a wiki for your Learning Team and post the following to your wiki:


o The table
o The evaluation checklist
o The evaluation of the texts


  • Share the link to your wiki with your classmates.
